Thanksgiving 2010

Thanksgiving is always at Mom's house

It isn't Thanksgiving without everyone looking at the Black Friday ads

Mom's famous french apple pies are simply a must...there is never a shortage of pie variety

What a gorgeous Thankgsiving Day

We ran out of room this year in the Giving book, so I had to add new pages. This is the tradition for over 10 years that all the people that come write in the book what they are thankful for

I love my grandma's (the one I never met) version of stuffing.

Since Omar has been around he has become the official turkey carver.

I wish I had taken more pictures of course. But once we start eating everything becomes a blur. This year Mary, Megan and Ben Wallis came, as well as Nancy, the boys and Micah brought one of his roommates. All of us kids were there, and Aaron Ihli and his family came. We had all the trimmings: turkey, cranberry sauce, gravy, mashed potatoes, sweet potato yummy, green bean casserole, stuffing, broccoli spinach casserole, creamed onions, creamed squash, homemade rolls, pumpkin pie, pecan pie, french apple pie and icecream.

This year for the movie we went and saw Harry Potter. Also, we played quite a bit of Settlers of Catan. Super fun!

The next day we went and took family pictures. That was the first time I think we have done that since I was in high school. Kelly and I got this for mom's Christmas gift. It was a perfect day for pictures.
